N.J. Gov. Chris Christie is upset about the attack on LGBT nightclub Pulse in Orlando. In response, he wants the U.S. to respond with military action overseas.
“You’ve got to get over there and make them pay where they live,” Christie said yesterday on WFAN’s Boomer & Carton Show (yes, a sports talk show). He was filling in for Boomer Esiason. “It is unacceptable to allow this type of stuff in our country and for us to not fight back. We’ve got to fight back.”
Christie is a top adviser to presumptive Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump and the head of Trump’s White House transition team if he wins. Earlier in the day at a public event, Christie said people need “to get serious” at “every level in government and in the private sector” about the threat of “radical Islam.”
Orlando shooter Omar Mateen was born in the U.S., and Christie didn’t specify where he thought America should attack, but to be fair he only spoke briefly on the Orlando attack while on Boomer & Carton. He was busy scolding Craig Carton over his praise of Geno Smith and lecturing a caller about his life as governor: “You don’t have the first understanding that my job is a 24-hours-a-day, seven-days-a-week job. People who are objective about it understand that.”
Last week on the same show, Christie and Carton rated female tennis players with Carton, saying the sport needed Maria Sharapova. “I liked Martina,” he later added, referring to… Martina Hingis, probably? Let’s go with Martina Hingis.
This guy better stick to making MacDonald’s runs. President Trump wouldn’t commit us to stupid adventures.
The attack was carried out by an American citizen born here. Where, exactly, will we take our revenge? And, on whom?
Frankly, there needs to be some action taken about the FBI and the political correctness that allowed this situation. The FBI is busy investigating tea partiers instead of Muslims with known terror connections...like the one advising the president and the chief aide of Hillary Clinton.
I’m thinkin’ that a strike on the NJ governors place would be in order to help IQ scores in the US.
Somebody give this guy a Twinkie please.
A military strike on the White House and Foggy Bottom would do more to end Islamic terrorism in the USA.
Against who? They guy’s dad or his wife?
Against who? They guy’s dad or his wife?
Yes, islam , not guns needs to be banned.
globally.
it has no place among civilized nations, nor the 21 st century.
What the hell is it doing in our White House?
Port St. Lucie of course.
I can’t think of any positive thing that Islam has brought to the USA.
First of all, I love Nelson Eddy and Jeanette MacDonald. What a talented beautiful team they were! They made you believe in heroes and in love, they knew how to sing a lovely fairy tale.
Now, I think Christie is right. We need to strike back at ISIS, where-ever we know them to be. However, I think we do it with nuclear missiles, no more expenditure of American blood in the middle east. And we should not overly worry too much about civilians either, we will warn them just as we did at Hiroshima and Nagasaki! We need to end this, just as we needed to end the war with Japan — which they started, just as these pigs started this one.
This Isis savage slaughtered 50 of our citizens, and maimed 50 more, they should pay a huge price, 50 x 50 of their people x 100, and then 1000 times that. There should be no measured response, the response should be swift,huge, and deadly; and we make sure the missiles are coated in pork fat. Make them tremble, make them doubt their Allah.
If they are so foolish as to keep it up, killing innocents anywhere in the world, let them worry that we may just decide wipe out the entire middle east and be done with it (except for Israel of course.) Let them know for a certainty that their Allah is a puny weakless gutless worthless evil god, powerless before the GOD of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, the Holy One of Israel, and the Lamb.
We don’t have the guts to do that.
What we need to do, Mr. Christie, is remove islam from this country, and make sure it never returns.
There is no place for such a hate filled ideology here.
islam produces nothing other than terror and death.
It has to go.
Mr. Christie, if you do not have the courage to say what must be said, then sit your ass down until you find your balls.
“The attack was carried out by an American citizen born here. Where, exactly, will we take our revenge? And, on whom?”
We need to take out the dictator in Kazakhstan. The terrorist was from Afghanistan, so have to take out the secular dictator from a neighboring country. After all, the Saudis inflicted 9/11, but Saddam paid the price.
Dearborn? Would hate to lose the headquarters for the Ford Motor Company, but if you're looking for a nexus of native born jihadis that would be an excellent place to start.
Islam is a religion that practices human sacrifice. All the killings in its name proves that. It should be banned in America.
The only proper military action would be sealing the borders along with a newly implemented travel ban with Mideast and North African countries
Oh no, is he going to invade Fort Pierce?
“We don’t have the guts to do that.”
Not possible unless and until there is a change at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, Washington, DC on 20 January 2017.
